B In a shocking upset,70-year-old Republican candidate Donald Trump rode a wave to victory as voters e
10、lected him the 45th President of the United States in November,2016. Actually,a lot of experts had predicted that Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton would come out on top.Throughout the campaign,one of Trumps main challenges was to persuade voters that he has the attitude,knowledge and judgment to
11、 be president.In the end,he was able to attract more than enough voters to his side. Hillary Clinton admitted the election to Trump in a phone call at around 2:30 am.“Hillary has worked very long and very hard over a long period of time,”Trump told his supporters during his victory speech.“We owe he
12、r a major debt of gratitude for her service to our country.” Hillary Clinton delivered her speech later in the day.“We must accept this result and then look to the future,” she told her disappointed supporters.“Donald Trump is going to be our president.We owe him an open mind and the chance to lead.

18、y unaffordable products?Only $49.99 for that $100.00 dinner?Thats the magic of Groupon,but for some small business owners the “great business” offered by Groupon can be equal to the kiss of death.How could that occur? The math of Groupon seems simple at a glance,but upon further inspection the numbe

20、 worrying numbers are assuming the price cut is 50/50,which,in some cases,is being generous. When you break it down to numbers,a Groupon deal seems disastrous,but its not only the numbers small business owners have to worry about.The point of Groupon deals is to attract new and hopefully long term c

24、ons. Now I by no means say Groupons have bad effects on all businesses;however the storm of Groupon is actually a disaster for a small business. 9.What is good about Groupon?
